charifjes affectinc: the administration of cjame laws occurred in Con- 
nocticut, Miohiofan. Montana, Nevada, Xow IMexico, New York, Ore- 
gon, AVasliington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. 

Commissions were reorganized in Connecticut, Montana, and 
Oregon, and also in Wyoming, where the jurisdiction of the com- 
mission was extended to include fish. New ^lexioo and West Vir- 
ginia authorized the appointment of nonsalaried commissions of 
three members each, replacing the offices of State game wardens, 
and authorized the appointment of wardens to administer the laws 
under the direction of the respective commissions. In IMichigan a 
conservation commission of seven nonsalaried memliers was author- 
ized in lieu of the Public Domain Connnission, which formerly had 
charge of the administration of the laws relating to fish, game, and 
forests; the new commission also takes jurisdiction of all matters 
formerly under the State Board of Fish Conmiissioners, the Geo- 
logical Survey, and the Michigan State Park Commission, Wash- 
ington abolished the office of State fish commissioner and State 
game warden and created a department of fisheries and game under 
a single director, with the administration of the fish and game laws 
under the direct supervision of a supervisor of game and game fish. 
In Nevada the office of State fish and game warden, in existence 
since 1917, Was abolished, and county commissioners were charged 
with the enforcement of the game laws in their respective counties. 
In New York efforts to abolish the warden service and i)lace the 
administration of the fish and game laws in the hands of the mounted 
police were defeated by the activity of sportsmen and conservation- 
ists, although the number of inspectors was reduced from 12 to not 
more than 10 and the number of protectors from 131 to not more 
than 90: two additional troops of 58 men each were added to the 
State police force, and the powers and duties of game protectors 
were conferred upon the State police. 

In California efforts to abolish the fish and game commission and 
transfer jurisdiction over the administration of the fish and game 
laws to the Department of Agriculture met with failure. Eenewed 
efforts to create fish and game departments in Florida and North 
Carolina were unsuccessful. 

In 44 States and in Alaska the enforcement of game laws is in- 
trusted to game commissioners, wardens, or other State officers; in 
Florida, Mississippi, and Nevada, to county wardens; in North Car- 
olina to the State Audubon Society and county wardens; and in the 
District of Columbia to the Metropolitan Police. Several national 
organizations are interested in the protection of birds and game, of 
which two are international. In addition. State associations and 
many local organizations cooperate in the work of protecting game 
in 40 States and Alaska. Twentv-scven States and the District of
